Children's Book Review: Curious George Takes a Train Ride

This book again uses the formula from the founders of Curious George, Margret and H.A. Rey. This book says illustrated in the style of H.A. Rey by Martha Weston. This is a story based on the characters of the deceased authors.
This book is not quite as enjoyable as some. It is relying too much on formula and not enough on telling a good story. George causes trouble due to his curiosity. This part is week here. However in this book, true to form, George becomes a hero by saving a boy.

My Thoughts on Entertainment

With so much out there in public media, it is easy to get confused. So this blog is for my reaction to what is out there. What are the trends? This blog also gives me a soap box to let people know what I like, and in a few instances what I don't like in media choices today. Also I hope to review movies and books that make a difference, movies about discrimination, civil rights and topics I find important. I hope you will note a change in the focus of this blog starting 3/1/16.
